Wikipedia. It wouldn't.

I've seen yours and I generally do.

Stimulus was a good idea - just not big enough to get out of the hole Bush created.

I would think the burden of proof is on Cantor as best job growth was during Clinton era when taxes were much higher.

Yeah it does, for those in China and India.

He didn't - that's why he so shamelessly gives into the Republicans.

So sure of his simplistic doctrine that he’s willing to throw the entire country into a depression over the notion that growth and jobs cannot take place accompanied by rising tax rates (even minimally). Nowhere in the bio of Eric Cantor do I see that he received an Economics degree: Eric...

We might need an oversized military when China starts turing the screws.

The whole structure is too stupid for words, it reduces revenue collected while, suppressing job formation and driving capital investment off shore...way to go Washington I fear Congress will end up doing EXACTLY the wrong thing - killing a nascent recovery we might have had in 2nd half -...

If US defaults who will be blamed in 2012, Obama or Republicans? I've heard conflicting views on both sides as to who will be blamed if this game of chicken with the American economy goes off the cliff.
